Ms. Barrados, thank you for being here.
You talked about collaborative programs with China, in your field. How can one reconcile the mode of operation as it exists in Canada, which is, in principle, that of a public service that is impartial and independent from politics, and that of a country such as China?
How does one adjust to a country where, quite obviously, the public service is controlled politically, as is the case in China? How do you manage to be useful in this regard?
